1. Ryan is readying for a face-off at the begninning of a hockey game. What is the total Force that ryan exerts on the ice? What is the total force of the ice on Ryan? Assume that Ryans total mass is 100 kg. Also take up ot be the +y direction, and towards the opponents goal to be +x direction.
2. Ryan is skating down the ice at 5 m/s. What is Ryan's momentum? Kinetic Energy?
3. Preparing to take a shot at the net, Ryan comes to a stop on the ice. If it takes ryan .5 seconds to come to stop, what is the net force that the ice exerts on Ryan? Use the net force to find the distance it takes ryan to come to a stop. What is the net force that Ryan exerts on the ice while stopping: give a name to this force.
4. Ryan takes a shot, sending the .2 kg puck towards the goal at 30 m/s. Assuming the collisions with the net are perfectly inelastic, and the collisions with the goalies stick are perfectly elastic, and that the goalie and net both remain at rest after the collision calculate:
a. The change in kinetic energy and momentum if the goalie blocks the puck with his stick
b. The change in KE and momentum if the puck goes into the net and stops.

A 105‑turn circular coil of radius 2.41 cm and negligible resistance is immersed in a uniform magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coil. The coil is connected to a 14.7 Ω resistor to create a closed circuit. During a time interval of 0.167 s, the magnetic field strength decreases uniformly from 0.481 T to zero. Find the energy, in millijoules, that is dissipated in the resistor during this time interval.

A 0.10kg dart is fired horizontally at the center of a 0.80kg vertically hanging block, sticking to it. The system reaches a maximum height, h, of 0.20m above the collision point.
Find:
a) the velocity of the dart – block system just after the collision
b) the velocity of the dart before collision
c) the energy lost during the collision.
d) if the dart gains its speed due to a spring system that is initially compressed 0.05m from its equilibrium
position, determine the spring constant.
e) If the dart didn’t stick to
the block, but instead fell vertically after collision, would the initial velocity of the
dart have to be greater, less than, or equal to the velocity that was found in part (b)? Justify.

A stiff wire 44.5 cm long is bent at a right angle in the middle. One section lies along the z axis and the other is along the line y=2x in the xy plane. A current of 24.0 A flows in the wire-down the z axis and out the line in the xy plane. The wire passes through a uniform magnetic field given by B =(0.318i)T.
A) Determine the magnitude and direction of the total force on the wire. (The direction must be theta below the negative y-axis).

You and your crew must dock your 2.55 × 104 kg
spaceship at Spaceport Alpha, which is orbiting Mars. In the
process, Alpha’s control tower has requested that you ram another
vessel, a freight ship of mass 1.60 × 104 kg, latch onto
it, and use your combined momentum to bring it into dock. The
freight ship is not moving with respect to the colossal Spaceport
Alpha, which has a mass of 1.80 × 107 kg. Alpha’s
automated system that guides incoming spacecraft into dock requires
that the incoming speed is less than 2.0 m/s.
(a) Assuming a perfectly linear alignment of your
ship’s velocity vector with the freight ship (which is stationary
with respect to Alpha) and Alpha’s docking port, what must be your
ship’s speed (before colliding with the freight ship) in order that
the combination of the freight ship and your ship arrive at Alpha’s
docking port with a speed of 1.40 m/s?
(b) What will be the velocity of Spaceport Alpha
when the combination of your vessel and the freight ship
successfully docks with it?
(c) Suppose you made a mistake while maneuvering
your vessel in an attempt to ram the freight ship and, rather than
latching on to it and making a perfectly inelastic collision, you
strike it and knock it in the direction of the spaceport with a
perfectly elastic collision. What is the speed of freight ship in
that case (assuming your ship had the same initial velocity as you
had calculated in part (a))?

Q: Do resonance positions get harder to find lower down in the tube?
Note: this is a questions based on a physics lab revolved around the idea of sound waves and the measurement of the velocity of sound in an air at room temperature and understanding the meaning of longitudinal or compressional waves. A synopsis of the lab: basically we used a long glass tube filled with water and attached to the apparatus was a reservoir in which as we brought lower to the ground water would fill it and the water in the tube would decrease, a sound of a certain frequency using a speaker would be continuously playing directly down the tube from the mouth and we had to tick off 5 times the depth in when we would hear the sound frequency change as the water level was lowered.
Thanks for helping!

answer to part A would not change, but the answer to part B would
